It was reported back in November that Vivo’s upcoming V21 series includes three handsets such as Vivo V21, Vivo V21 SE, and Vivo V21 Pro. According to a reliable tipster Mukul Sharma, Vivo will announce the Vivo V21 series in India in the near future. He shared a screenshot of the V21 SE smartphone’s IMEI database listing in India.
The screengrab reveals that the Vivo V21 SE has a V2061 model number. The tipster speculated that the V21 SE could be a rebranded version of China’s iQOO U3 phone, which has a model number of V2061A. It is advisable to wait for further to see whether the V21 SE will end up as a rebadged iQOO U3.
So yes, Vivo V21 series isn't too far away from now. I can confirm that there will be a Vivo V21 SE.
The same device has already been registered on the Indian IMEI database.
Plus, the model number resonates with the iQOO U3, which has a Dimensity 800U SoC.#Vivo #VivoV21SE pic.twitter.com/74k19qy3qu— Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings) March 20, 2021
